    Eg4 draining batteries in broad daylight???

    Is Battery com's setup?.. Doesn't look like it. Voltages in battery settings are much higher than my BMS controlled parameters..

    EG4 3000 with AOLithium server rack batteries and communications(RS485)

    If the 3KEHV is voltronic components and can support pylontech CAN,... does the 6500EX also?... or is LiA the only CAN protocol for that hardware?

    Connector help!

    Seems like the cables are in stock on the AOLithium Ebay store now.

    Solar assistant: do you use it?

    Nice. I wish I could see all the metrics per battery.. The Ruixu packs use LIB protocol for my setup and the Solar Assistant driver for that protocol is bare bones.. One value for voltage and current for the entire stack, no temps either.

    EG4 6000xp PV startup voltage?

    Maybe I would have to run my 10 405W Longi's in a 10s configuration... would be about 400V 13A max... for one MPPT though. Early morning would be ~180V and typical mid-day would be 360V where I am..

    EG4 6000xp PV startup voltage?

    Hmmm, this has me reconsidering the 6k Luxpower now... I have a variant of the Voltronic 6548 with the 250VOC capability. I only really have room for 2 strings of 5 405W Longi Panels and they seem to sit at 90-ish volts until the full sun comes through. This 100v limit makes me think the...

    Connector help!

    I just saw Seplos uses the same connector on some of their kits... Maybe thats an option if they sell parts.

    FSP connectors from Futronics. part number: FSP800160TZ-25U1A1K 2384 125A rated, up to 25 mm2 cable (~3 AWG) Something like this... https://www.metabee.com/waterproof-energy-storage-connector-right-angle-125a-orange-25mm2-unshielded-cable-z-key-id20220600044.html

    RuiXU battery experiences

    The SOC may deviate if you ever have a load of less than 0.5A per battery.. Any time less than that will not be recorded as consumption by the BMS. So if you left the inverter on idle for a week, without solar input, the batteries would die with 99% SOC indicated.

    Connector help!

    You could order from ca.aolithium.com and get them routed back to US via forwarder... just an option..

    Connector help!

    They also ship with 25mm2 (3 AWG) cable... You could always replace a few of the connections with generic lug-type parts..

    They are made by Futronics, (http://futronicsconnector.com/list_14/81.html).. They seem to be selling them here: https://www.metabee.com/waterproof-energy-storage-connector-right-angle-125a-orange-25mm2-unshielded-cable-z-key-id20220600044.html

    EG4 3000 with AOLithium server rack batteries and communications(RS485)

    Which EG4 model are you asking about?

    Eg4 6000xp not showing num batteries In parallel

    Just speculation, but maybe the current version of the app will only read and display those metrics if the pack and protocol is EG4.

    New EG4 Chargeverter V2

    Almost ordered but really my system is hobbiest level and I only need 1500-2000W top up slowly in the winter so decided this was overkill (wont have a generator).. I just picked up a 1500W 60V power supply for $250 to top up when needed.
